The
large section of the Indigenous Garden laid bare by the Metro cabling works and platform repair will need some hard work and TLC now that the
grimmest part of summer is over. Metro management has funded replacement plants and has made sure that mulch was
spread over the whole area, including large segments of Merri Common, to ready
the soil for replanting.

And so a Re-Planting Day has been scheduled for:

Sunday,
4 May, from 10.00 till 2.00

Come to the Merri Common with some gardening tools - wheelbarrows, shovels, spades, picks - and an appetite for a BBQ lunch!
